“We chose Athens because it felt right — both medically and personally. The clinic was modern, the team genuinely caring. After our transfer we spent a few days on a Greek island. I am now 7 months pregnant. The whole experience, including flights and accommodation for two visits, cost less than one NHS-funded cycle would have.”
